A Fateful Chance — Chapter 50: WHAT’S BEHIND THE TRUTH?

Andrew's POV

"Please take care of yourself, alright?" I hugged her and kissed her on the cheek.

"Yes, for you sweetheart."

Because of what Priya told me about my wife, I don't know who to believe anymore. I decided to follow her after she left the house. I made sure I could see her car even half a kilometer away from where she is right now. I don't want to get caught.

I made sure my eyes never missed any single trace of where she's going today. I have to verify everything that Priya revealed to me the other night. I stopped at a nearby shop because her car stopped at the nearest toy shop. Now, I am wondering why she did that.

I saw her entering the shop and the usual thing happened. Most of her fans were the employees of the store. I saw them helping her in buying a lot of toys. I even wonder why she did this. Is she having a charity or something? She didn't even mention anything to me about this.

She smiled at most of them. She sat at one of the queue chairs near the exit. I saw that the employer gave her a comfortable chair to sit on. She gladly accepted it and sat cross-legged. Ten minutes had passed and many of the employees flocked to her and gave her a lot of toys. I noticed that he preferred toys that's for boys.

I got inside the car as soon as I saw her coming out of the store. She looked at my direction and paused for a moment while putting on her signature sunglasses.

I did not move a muscle. I hope she didn't see me though. I saw her getting in her car again as if in a hurry. My, it is also the first time that I have seen my wife speeding like this one. She's amazing. Too amazing that I am asking myself if I really knew her too well, or am I only fooling myself.

***flashback***

"Do you really know your wife, Drew?" She smirked as she gently got the wine glass and inserted it between his middle finger and index finger while moving it in a circular motion.

I swallowed and looked at her straight into her eyes.

"She's Dianne Swiss, the second wife of my old father."

He was stunned in a moment after hearing those words. It's like his ears were clung by cymbals he doesn't want to believe her.

"Well, every lawyer wanted some evidence right? Here, for you to not appear really dumb in front of me." I got the papers in front of the table and even the pictures of my wife being wed to him.

"What are you trying to tell me?"

"This is the reason why I want to hire you as my lawyer. The reason for my father's death is cardiac arrest but I don't think that's really the reason for his death." She said while looking at me straight to the eye. She put another set of papers in front of me. I scanned the papers and I realized it's the list of Mr. Khalid Reike's property. It was beyond what I could imagine. Is Mr. Khalid included as one of the richest men in the world?

I saw his net worth, a minimum of ten billion US dollars. He is even included among the top forty richest men in the world. However, he belongs to those businessmen who kept their private life lowkey even if they were incredibly wealthy.

"Before marriage, my father announced that he will be changing his last will and testament and even blackmailed both of his daughters to not inherit anything if we're not going to attend to his wedding with that whore."

He looked at her as if warning her to slow down on what she's talking about.

"Can you blame me for calling her that? What would you expect me to feel if my dad will marry someone almost the same age as mine? Be happy about it? Fuck her to death."

He just listened to her rants because what he just discovered now is beyond his expectations. Andrew could feel Priya's bitterness. They've been together and yet it is his first time to hear her cussing. She had a beautiful and innocent-looking face and yet those words are coming from her mouth now. That made him feel disappointed too because if not for Priya's revelations, he wouldn't know what kind of person his wife is.

"Do you believe that she was the one who killed your father? Do you know what you're trying to prove here?"

"My father changed his last will and testament last minute. Guess what? He only knew Dianne for less than two years but he already gave fifty percent of his wealth to her. Could you just imagine? My father trusted a stranger more than his two daughters?"

He swallowed and he thinks he couldn't stand every single word anymore.

"That's why I am asking you this. Do you really know your wife too well?" She smirked as she took a sip from her wine glass while her eyes were fixed to his.

"And oh, by the way, bonus trivia. Did you know that she was pregnant when my father found her? Just imagine what kind of woman she is. You wished I was the worst woman you ever met,right? Well, I have a lot of evidence against your wife."

***end of flashback***

She stopped at the biggest villa I've ever known. It was big, spacious and grand. I noticed that the interiors were vibrant and lively, with glass walls and minimalist furniture surrounding both the green lawn and the living room from the inside. The best thing is, the villa's location because it is beside the sea, overlooking the beautiful scenery during day and night. The waves also brought a calming effect and peace for its owner.

Wait...is my wife the owner of this property? My car was hiding from a distant bush in front of their house. The guards were visible around the villa. I could say the security is really visible from here.

I could hear my wife's car honking the wide entrance gate. The guards opened the gate right away. I saw how happy she is, while getting the car inside the house parking it to a garage near the wide lawn.

I saw a young boy rushing towards her.

"Mommy!" He exclaimed in excitement as he embraced my wife tight. I could see all the maids bringing all the toys in front of the young boy. He jumped for joy seeing all of his toys.

"These are all for you, my sweet munchkin. Mommy missed you so much."

"I love you mommy. Thank you so much!" He hugged him tight. It crushed my heart into pieces. I never wanted to believe Priya and what she told me last night. However, upon seeing these things, I don't know if I could still trust my own wife.
